EPISODE SUMMARY
From Germany to St. Jude, motherhood to football—there’s something for everyone in this dynamic podcast episode with Taylor Dore Terry, Maine. Taylor is a mental health advocate, natural connector, community support ambassador and athlete, currently playing tight end for a semi-professional football team.
EPISODE NOTES
Taylor’s success stems from her grit and bravery—always chasing her dreams. She joined Tri Delta as a graduate student, drawn to our values, and eventually served Alpha Kappa Chapter as president.
Taylor shares her journey navigating postpartum depression, the power of community and how she helps others prioritize mental health and seek life-changing support. Juggling roles as a mom, wife, connector and advocate, she has still found a way (and the time!) to break barriers by playing tight end for the Cincinnati Cougars, a semi-pro football team.
Her football journey defies societal norms, inspiring women in male-dominated spaces. Learn about the Women’s Football Alliance and building high-powered partnerships (including one with ESPN).
Join us to hear Taylor’s her inspiring words, feel her positivity and discover how she is a role model for women and moms everywhere! Then catch No. 42 and all the Cincinnati Cougars in action through streamed games on cincinnaticougars.org.
